September 23, 20168 yr Is it only me that hears this as a complete rip off of 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved'? It does sound quite similar to 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved' in most parts of the song.
September 23, 20168 yr I wonder if Union J can make a similar comeback, they almost did it 2 years ago and they have been working with top producers in LA on new material.
September 23, 20168 yr I'd be surprised if Union J had an similar comeback to James Arthur. Although anything can happen.
September 25, 20168 yr So is he back with Syco or another label, If he is back with Cowell then is this a first time that he has resigned an XF act? He's back with Syco in the UK. I believe he signed to Columbia Germany who presumably had some sort of deal to distribute his music around the world through the parent company (Sony)? Quite remarkable this turnaround in the last two years!
October 28, 20168 yr Well he always said he cared more about albums than singles & he released his last one on a VERY unideal week going up against Eminem & Tinie Tempah so all the best for him this time round.
October 29, 20168 yr Had a listen to his new album and it's very good his voice sounds STUNNING throughout of it and there's some good songs on there as well . The Album is doing pretty good on iTunes as well number 1 on UK iTunes and top 40 on US iTunes :o
November 3, 20168 yr http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/350x300q90/922/EiUt7w.jpg Disc 1, Track 1. :yahoo:
November 10, 20168 yr Let Me Love the Lonely is the next single but the version will be different as it will feature Nicole Scherzinger.
March 26, 20178 yr James Arthur is after James Corden show now also booked for Ellen and Jimmy Fallon show in USA. James Arthur SYWLG continues to climb on USA charts. And is still in top 10 on USA ITunes charts! James Arthur will, after his current UK tour was sold out in 10 minutes, soon announce new UK Arena tour for November. James Arthur will in April release new single called Can I Be Him, which will be promoted in UK and USA. James Arthur will in summer join One Republic on North America Arena tour for over 40 sold out concerts. Considering he was absolutely nowhere to find less than 1 year ago... (And with X Factor winner "curse"...) I think he made one hell of a comeback.
April 20, 20178 yr He is doing amazingly, this is all such good news. I love him and I hope to see him live at some point!
May 22, 20187 yr Author http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/j...-script__22967/ Former X Factor winner James Arthur is being sued by Irish band The Script over his 2016 comeback single Say You Won't Go. In a civil suit, Richard Busch from firm King and Ballow, the attorney who successfully sued Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams over Blurred Lines on behalf of Marvin Gaye's estate, said that Arthur's song infringes on the copyright of The Script's 2008 single, The Man Who Can't Be Moved, which was written by band members Daniel O'Donoghue and Mark Sheehan, with songwriters Andrew Frampton and Stephen Kipner. In the suit, which was filed on behalf of The Script yesterday (21 May), Busch argued that Arthur has made over $20 million (£14.8m) from Say You Won't Go, which spent three weeks at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart in 2016. The suit also names the song's co-writers, Neil Ormandy and Steve Soloman, as well as Sony/ATV Publishing, Sony Music, Columbia Records, Ultra International Music Publishing, Third Verse Music Publishing and Kobalt Music Publishing. In a statement delivered to Billboard, Busch argued that Say You Won't Let Go acted as a second wind for Arthur's career, which had stalled following his 2013 self-titled debut album. "It’s widely known Mr. Arthur was dropped by his record label for public controversies, which caused a break in his career," Busch said. "It wasn’t until the release of Say You Won’t Let Go that he achieved worldwide success." According to TMZ, the suit also alleges that Arthur approached The Script's front man Danny O'Donoghue in 2014 asking whether they could collaborate on a song together. The request was apparently denied. Following the release of Say You Won't Let Go in 2016, The Sun noted the similarities between the two songs and reported that The Script were planning to sue. Arthur then told the publication that nothing ever came of that, suggesting that there was "no case". "It's 2017, there's only seven notes in music," he said. "Every blues song sounds the f***ing same. People get a bit wound up about these things for no reason." According to Busch's suit, The Script are seeking statutory damages over the track, as well as an accounting of all streaming, distribution, publishing and touring revenue. :') about time they sued! :lol:

May 22, 20187 yr I really don’t see the need tbh . I mean the songs have similarities but there not THAT similar or identical that there needs to be a lawsuit . Edited May 22, 20187 yr by troylovesmusic
